Persistant Pin

Is there such a thing as ' Persistant Pin ' and does it mean that if enabling it , it saves having to enter my Pin number each time when requested ? I've looked in setting , but can't find anything related to it . It's for my new Q box . Thanks

@snowdon3000 You've posted this in the Sky stream forum, so do you have Sky Q as posted or a stream puck?

No such option exists. The Broadcasting Code requires entry of the Mandatory Daytime Protection PIN to view post-watershed content being carried in daytime hours on platforms to which the Code applies.

If you're watching age restricted content pre watershed then it'll always ask for the pin regardless of your settings. It is an Ofcom requirement that Sky must adhere to and cannot be overriden by Sky or you.
